Coinshares weekly report of digital asset flows shows that crypto assets witnessed more than a 600% increase in net inflows last week after US Consumer Price Index (CPI) saw a softer-than-expected inflation increase.

Digital assets inflows near $1 billion

Digital asset funds recorded consecutive inflows last week with $932 million in net inflows i.e., a 619% increase from last week's $130 million inflows, according to data from Coinshares.

Generally, increased fund inflows in an asset signify investor confidence and a potential price increase.

The increased inflows were triggered after the US reported on Wednesday that CPI only increased by a softer-than-expected 0.3%, indicating progress towards the Federal Reserve's 2% target. 89% of the reported total flows came in the last three days of the week after the CPI data release.

Bitcoin accounted for a large chunk of total flows, with over $942 million in inflows. Solana and Chainlink also recorded inflows of $4.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively. Ethereum, on the other hand, recorded outflows of nearly $23 million following bearish sentiments last week regarding spot ETH ETF approval.

However, things are turning positive for the digital asset this week following rumors that the SEC is set to approve the ETFs as the May 23 deadline approaches.

By region, the US dominated with more than $1 billion in inflows. Canada continued seeing outflows for the second consecutive week, with about $17 million in outflows. Hong Kong saw outflows of $82.5 million, indicating the debut of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in the region may not be worth the hype.

Total volumes across global ETFs also slightly increased from $8 billion to $10.5 billion last week. However, it's still miles below the $40 billion volume seen in March.

With the market opening the week on a positive note on Monday, global ETFs may record even more increased inflows.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
